I was thinking last night about my progress with my yoga this last week, and I was feeling kind of discouraged that I hadn't practiced this week. It was at that point that I realized I had been strengthening my practice even though I had not turned on a video. I practiced my breath so much this week. After the classes last weekend I was so relaxed that I fell asleep the second my head hit the pillow.
I am the type of person who usually rolls around and tests all my sides before I turn to my back and fall asleep; It is my process. After our first class on Friday night I laid down on my back, and fell right to sleep. I was astonished. My goal for this last week was to practice my yoga before bed in the hopes that I would be able to fall asleep more quickly and effortlessly. As I said, this did not happen, but I did use my breathing to help me fall asleep. Although it was not as successful as actually practicing, it did help. This week I will actually start practicing before bed like I had previously planned. It will help that I am no longer sick and I am not moving this week.... so here we go!
